Beatrice Herrmann from the @BrodskyIgor Lab defends her thesis on Monday!

Three of my favorite papers published this week:
1. A mechanism for bacteria to create *new* repetitive toxic genes to kill themselves in response to infection (!!)

How is caspase-11 noncanonical inflammasome assembly mediated by LPS? Read our new paper in @eLife to find out! Congratulations to my co-first authors Daniel Akuma and @KAWodzanowski, my PI @BrodskyIgor, @SunnyShinLab, @taabaman and everyone who contributed to this work!
Our paper is out @eLife!! elifesciences.org/articles/8…
Huge congrats to co-1st authors @DanielAkuma5 @RonitSchwartz99 @KAWodzanowski & thanks to co-senior authors @taabaman @SunnyShinLab & other collaborators for this amazing effort! For more info see thread: teapaw.org/BrodskyIgor/status/157…

Had a great time at #Cytokines2023 @CytokineSociety in Athens presenting my work from the Brodsky lab on Yersinia infection and cell death! 🇬🇷
Congrats @RonitSchwartz99 on presenting your studies on Casp8->Casp1 activation in response to Yersinia @CytokineSociety #Cytokines2023! So proud of your hard work &efforts on this project! Sorry I can't be there but looks like a great meeting as always @KingOfPathogens!

B. subtilis is the microbe of the year. I was today years old when I learned that B.subtilis is added to the flush water of toilets in German rest areas. Once the germinate, they oust pathogens. Very cool! #vaam2023

Huge congrats to co-1st authors DanielSorobetea and @RinaDoesScience @CAMBUpenn on this lovely story out today @NatureMicrobiol in which we uncovered intestinal pyogranulomas forming acutely during Yersinia pseudotb infection! nature.com/articles/s41564-0…

Up early. Woke up a champion🏆🍾⚾️ Again! The bad: knee still sore😔 The good: Hair still lit🔥😎#LaPiña🍍

Thankful to be able to attend #Cytokines2022 on the Big Island with members of the Shin and Brodsky labs and our daughter Maya! So great to catch up with old friends and meet new colleagues in such a lovely location (w/ JamesGrayzcyk & SouravGhosh notontwitter). 🙏🏝🌅

This review is fantastic!
The 'functional paralipidomes' hypothesis can explain many phenomena of the protein-plasma membrane interactions via a physics perspective.
Also, super inspiring for molecular engineers. It is impossible to hear the "urgent call". Just on time!
Proud (and bit nervous) to share our (Ed Lyman+me) thoughts how membrane proteins are regulated by their #lipidtime nano-environments out now in @NatRevMCB
We suggest a generalizable concept for protein-lipid interactions: the 'functional paralipidome'

If like me you've run hundreds of minipreps but never bothered to read up on why they extract plasmid but not chromosomal DNA, a recent tweet by @joel_rosenbaum finally motivated me to look it up. From Biennium and Doly 1979:

Giant viruses build a cell nucleus surprisingly like our own.
Study found that jumbo phages construct a shielded compartment that acts similar to a nucleus in eukaryotic cells & protects the virus's core genetic material, needed to replicate & spread

Researchers have observed chimps applying a never-before-seen type of treatment—snatching flying insects, and applying them to their wounds. 🎧 bit.ly/3qlaSvu
